Nike Air Force 1 Luxe Brown Basalt DN2451-200

The Nike Air Force 1 Low Luxe Brown Basalt takes a classic sneaker silhouette and reimagines it as a high-end dress shoe ready for all types of weather.

The Luxe Nike Air Force 1 Low-Top in a Brown Basalt/Brown-Black-Gum/Dark Brown colorway features an upper created with dress-shoe elements. The brown leather base sports an understated sheen along with toebox perforations in a pattern reminiscent of Oxford wingtips. The brown leather overlays on the toe and heel blend into the upper construction. In subtle contrast, the dark brown pebbled leather of the eyestay overlay, the side panel Nike Swoosh, and the heel counter add distinction. The brown sock liner matches the brown insole with pale Nike branding. To top off the high-class aesthetic, debossed Nike branding adorns the leather tongue.

An aspect of this shoe we really enjoy is the durable yet stylish sole unit. The gum-like rubber midsole which encapsulates Air is bolstered by a sturdy mud guard surrounding the shoe. The black rubber outsole sports pebbled traction, a singular choice for an AF1. The Nike Air Force 1 Low Luxe Brown Basalt was released on June 14, 2022, for $140 retail.
